Xie Qingxue woke from her dream and subconsciously placed her hand on her chest. It felt as if the pain from the poison still lingered in her chest, as if her internal organs were burning with a raging fire.
Her eyes couldn't help but turn red. Zhou Huaiyuan's name rolled on the tip of her tongue, carrying with it a deep hatred.
She was so good to him, and had given everything for him, but he treated her like that, even poisoning her. It took three full hours for the poison to take effect before she passed away in extreme pain.
"My Lady, I misjudged you. I will never forgive you."
"Zhou Huaiyuan, I will never fall in love with you again. I'm not that despicable. In this life, I must..." She murmured. She decided to support the Second Prince in this life. She thought the Second Prince hated her to death, but she didn't expect that he would be the one to collect her body in the end.
"I will make you pay the price and prevent you from getting what you really want." Shi Miao interrupted her, "Is that what you want to say?"
Only then did Xie Qingxue realize there was a completely unfamiliar woman in the room, and the patrol system hadn't even issued a warning. Wait, she had no shadow? She wasn't a physical entity?
Yet, when her eyes met the other person's face, she felt no trace of alarm. Her cousin, Concubine Xie, was already the most beautiful girl she had ever seen, but even her flower-like beauty paled in comparison to hers. The other person had an ethereal aura, as if she didn't belong to this world and could vanish at any moment.
"Who are you?"
Shi Miao blinked and without hesitation raised his own generation, "Your ancestor is more than three thousand years old this year."
In the future, due to the genetic improvement and development of interstellar people over generations, the average lifespan will be over 200 years old, but the current limit is only 400 years. Living for a thousand years is simply impossible.
But the other party said that he was more than 3,000 years old...
"You're lying!" Xie Qingxue scolded loudly, and she regretted it as soon as she said it. Was her tone too stiff? Did she scare her?
Shi Miao smiled instead, "Because I'm pursuing the path of cultivating immortality."
She pointed her finger, and a green light fell on Xie Qingxue, like moonlight, with a slight chill.
The fog in her mind seemed to be blown away by a breeze, and the hostility in Xie Qingxue's heart dissipated a lot in an instant.
"So you are really my ancestor?" She blinked and made up her mind. No wonder she was able to be reborn after death, it must be the ancestor's doing, right?
Shi Miao saw through her thoughts at a glance and had no intention of clarifying them.
She just looked at her with a half-smile, "Are you planning to support Xie Huaiyan in this life?"
"How did you know?" Xie Qingxue bit her lower lip. "In my previous life, he went out of his way to collect my body and avenge me." She noticed that he never married, and that he had kept one of her favorite hair ornaments in his house. It turned out that someone, unknown to her, had been silently loving her.
It's impossible to say I wasn't moved at all.
Xie Qingxue even suspected that Zhou Huaiyan gave up the throne so easily in his previous life, was it also for her?
Shi Miao's eyelids twitched, and her expression looked as if she was about to reload her brain with love.
She said bluntly, "He gave up the throne simply because he had no hope. The army was in Zhou Huaiyuan's hands, and the Council of Elders and the three major families all supported Zhou Huaiyuan."
There were five major families in the Federation. Zhou Huaiyuan had won over two of them through marriage, and the other family was the Xie family. However, after he came to power, the Xie family did not end up well.
Wait, does this count as him being a duck for the throne?
Shi Miao's thoughts couldn't help but wander.
Xie Qingxue blushed. She hadn't said anything, so how could the ancestor know everything? Was this the ability of a great cultivator? It was like he had the power to read minds.
"Grandfather... I, I just think Xie Huaiyan is a good person, I don't think about anything else."
Shi Miao asked her, "What if I told you that I had seen your future destiny. At the banquet a month later, you chose to help the drugged Xie Huaiyan, and after a series of trials, the two of you reached a cooperation. You also got to know each other more and more, and finally you fell in love with him, and then you found out that he had fallen in love with you a long time ago."
Shi Miao recounted Xie Qingxue's future fate. "...In the end, you became his queen. You gave birth to three children, and your son inherited the throne. And everyone who had hurt you received retribution. Do you like this future?"
Xie Qingxue was stunned. This seemed to be better than she had imagined. She had originally thought that even if it meant risking her life, Xie Huaiyuan would have to pay the price. She had never imagined that she would actually be with Zhou Huaiyan and become his queen. For her, he would not appoint any other concubines and would only have her as his woman for the rest of his life.
This should be the greatest happiness in the eyes of secular people, right?
It seems as if all the hurt suffered in the previous life was for this life.
She should have been happy, but under the gaze of her ancestor, she felt empty and confused.
"This should be a fate that many people envy." Xie Qingxue said with a curl of her lips.
Shi Miao asked, "In this life, you went from supporting Xie Huaiyuan to supporting Xie Huaiyan, and finally you became a virtuous and gentle queen praised by everyone, allowing the new king Xie Huaiyan to handle state affairs without any worries."
Xie Qingxue couldn't help but ask, "Then should I still go to the battlefield?" She suddenly remembered that her dream had once been to become a marshal. Back in military school, while her mecha piloting skills were only average, she always managed to lead her teammates to victory with minimal casualties in every competition.
Shi Miao smiled, "Of course not. No one even knows that you are the military advisor behind them."
